Portland Cement Manufacturing Facility

Section 22 – T20N – R14E, Rogers County

Directions: I-44 to 129th East Ave, North 2 miles to Apache.

East 1 mile to 145th East Ave, North to entrance.

SECTION I. INTRODUCTION

This facility operates as a Portland cement manufacturing plant (SIC 3241). It was originally constructed / operated as Dewey Portland Cement Company in the early 1960s. Dewey merged with American Marietta and the facility was re-named Martin Marietta Cement. In 1983 Blue Circle Cement acquired and operated this facility until 2002 when it was sold to Lafarge. The applicant submitted a timely Title V operating permit application on June 26, 1998, for this major source.

SECTION II. PROCESS DESCRIPTION

The facility produces Portland and masonry cements, and other cement products using the dry process. The raw materials include limestone (oxides of calcium), aluminum, iron and silica, which are first ground to a powder. Next they are calcined at temperatures of around 2,600oF in a rotary cement kiln to produce “clinker.” The clinker is then finely ground and mixed with approximately 5% gypsum to produce cement. At maximum capacity, a feed rate of approximately 4,070 tons per day of raw materials may be fed to two kilns to produce a maximum total (both kilns) of 96 TPH of clinker. Approximately 43% by weight of the raw materials are lost in the calcining process. Each rotary kiln is 425 feet long and 12 to 14 feet in diameter. Originally fired by natural gas, the facility was converted to coal commencing in 1974.

The Finish Mill system is a rotating ball mill used to grind the clinker, gypsum, and fly ash into the final cement product. The three finish mills have a design capacity to produce 141 TPH of cement.

The Clinker Cooler System consists of the #1 and #2 Clinker Coolers, which have been modified in order to increase their heat transfer efficiency and which were involved in netting for Permit No. 95-290-O. The purpose of the clinker cooler is to cool the hot clinker from the kiln so that it may be handled by the transport system and to recoup heat from the clinker in order to utilize less fuel in the kiln process.

The final step in the process is storing, handling, and packaging to ship the final products by truck and rail. Particulate emissions from each step of these processes (as well as the grinding, calcining and cooling) are controlled by air systems with fabric filters. In many cases the fabric filters have a primary purpose of product recovery or separation.
